Can a Bluesound Node 2i power supply really be upgraded?


I mean...by improving its components, not with a YOUR preferred streamer brand...;-)
Sure, you can upgrade the C-7 power cord. We all get that.

But, what about the power supply.
I only see 3 options:

1. Fidelity in UK
2. Some dude in Poland selling on eBay
3. Rumors of Teddy Pardo making one for the Node 2i.

It has to be DIY for the first two and not really what I'm looking to do with my streamer - I mean, if i'm going to to a DIY LPS upgrade, I'd like it to be easier to buy.

Anybody know anything or actually made it work?

Are there better streamers than the BS Node? Certainly. However I find for value,I’m all in with them. I actually run 3 Nodes. A N1,2,and 2i. I find my systems very pleasing to my ears. But certainly not the final word. I’ve upgraded cables on the 2,and 2i,and also run these through external DACs. The N1 I use in a little system in my breezeway. I’m using the internal DAC on that one. It is adequate.

I would love to hear a BS product with an upgraded power supply. I’m not an electronic diy kind of guy,and I would be afraid of blowing something up. So I stick with what I know,switching cables. Remember what Clint Eastwood said; “ Every man must know his limitations.”
